Art Inspired by The Curley Tailed Cat

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 3, 2016 / Exhibition of Art and installation in light at New York MOCA. Expressionist Artists Jacques Rosas and Eric Steding rescued Marie and Gary, kitten siblings, from the dreaded Spanish Harlem kill shelter on September 10th of 2014.

In a few months it became clear that Marie’s tail was going to be curly, a rare condition for cats. “Like a Dr. Seuss Character” says Steding.

Soon after, Rosas began a series of large scale abstract paintings, for their new MOCA gallery, and had unknowingly fell under the spell of “The Curly Tailed Cat” mimicking the tail in 1000’s of brush strokes. The results are calming and visitors liken the style to a “Van Gough” esthetic. Stedings painting are portraits of the cats in his life.

Multiple large abstracts by Rosas, notably the work called “Jacques Rosas America,” reveals a map of the USA with the Curly Tailed patterns, in a calico of colors, on oil painted canvass.

One painting now hangs at “True Colors House” in New York City. Others gaining notoriety on set for Barbara Walters Presents American Scandal, CBS This Morning, 60 Minutes and Good Morning America.

All these shows shot at Rosas and Stedings Shop Studios and feature art from their MOCA gallery.

The newly formed gallery on West 39th Street, recently named and copy written, The New York Museum of Contemporary Art, also operates the fully functioning artist’s, TV, film and photography studio within.
